The mutations that cause adult blood cancer can occur as early as childhood or even in the womb 🩸 #BloodCancer #Genomics Read the full story ➡️ sanger.ac.uk/news_item/adul…


Delighted to share our paper ➡️Increased somatic mutation burdens in normal human cells due to defective DNA polymerases go.nature.com/3kUQVJy Implications for our understanding of cancer risk and the somatic mutation theory of #ageing 🧵⬇️




Thrilled to share our paper on the mutational landscape of human somatic and germline cells @Nature. We integrated histology and genomics to explore the genetic diversity that develops within our bodies as we age. nature.com/articles/s4158… An illustrated tweetorial… [1/15]





What happens to our blood as we get older? I am very excited to share our preprint and key findings below biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
